Removal Of Subsidy On Cassava by Abagworo(m): 4:53pm On Jan 04, 2012
I just want people to open their eyes well and understand what Government is calling subsidy. Nigeria is the worlds largest producer of cassava just like it is the 6th largest producer of crude oil.

What has been defined as subsidy by our Government is selling our locally produced oil at the American and European price. Why can't we sell every locally produced stuff at international price?

Cassava or Garri in the UK costs more than thrice its price in Nigeria, so subsidy should be removed so that the smuggling of garri and other cassava products by some cabals will be stopped. Same applies to everything including water.
